A dolphin at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium is going against the home team and predicting a Chiefs victory in the Super Bowl.

Nicholas the dolphin has gone six for six in his recent sports predictions, and he correctly picked the Chiefs to beat the San Francisco 49ers in the Super Bowl last year.

His winning streak began in in 2017, when he correctly selected the Clemson Tigers to win the College Football Playoff National Championship at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa.

Nicholas is an Atlantic bottlenose dolphin. He was rescued on Christmas Eve in 2002 after becoming stranded near Gibsonton, Florida.

The aquarium said another dolphin at the facility, Winter, has picked the Bucs, so not all hope is lost.
